What can I do to make my forehead look rounder and less pointed forward? (Photo)

When dealing with your face and perceptions (your own and those of your surgeon), always try a less invasive method first, before submitting yourself to permanent implants. In your case, you photograph as been very well taken to show the depressed temporal fossa: this occurs with natural aging and, in some instances, after surgery or certain diseases. Whereas a permanent implant should work well, far better to try one of the fillers and make sure you like the result. Most fillers in this area will last around 9 - 12 months. If you simply have familial or premature atrophy of the temporal tissues, further change may also occur over the next few years: worth considering if you are going to contemplate a permanent implant.Good luck!BCK Patel MD, FRCS

Dear jasminaFrom what I can see in your photo, your forehead looks smooth and very natural. I do see your temple area that appears to have volume loss (or has always been more hollow).You have the option of simply using a facial filler to fill your temple to contour. This is done by a relatively simple way, in an office chair, with little discomfort and practically no downtime. Most surgeons will use fillers such as Radiesse or Voluma. (Voluma has the advantage of being reversible)The filler will routinely last more than 12 months. There are surgical implant options but you should consider them only after you have at least tried the injectable fillers once to make sure you like the results.Look for an experienced surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Adding volume either with synthetic filler or natural fat transfer to the temple and lateral cheek area would help to soften the look.

You have temporal hollowing which extends up to the anterior temporal line at the side of the forehead. This can be effectively and permanently augmented with extended anterior temporal implants.

You might first try fillers in the temporal areas. Custom silastic or methylmethacrylate  implants could be surgically placed in the depressed areas.
